Piestro

Piestro was a Los Angeles-area food-robotics company that built a fully enclosed, automated pizza-making vending machine — an unattended kiosk that pressed, sauced, topped, baked, cut and boxed an artisanal pizza in roughly three minutes, sold both as direct-to-consumer placements and as a white-label unit for existing pizza brands. Founded by Massimo Noja De Marco and incubated by Wavemaker Labs (since rebranded Vebu Labs), it raised roughly $11.7M from equity-crowdfunding investors, largely via StartEngine, and piloted units with partners including Capriotti's and 800 Degrees Go. Piestro shut down in January 2025 without shipping a production unit. It is a hardware and food-service company, not a software vendor: it never ran a developer program, and no public API, SDK, webhook, developer portal or machine-readable contract of any kind was ever published. This profile records that absence rather than inventing a surface.

Piestro is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Robotics, Automation, Food Service, and Restaurant Technology.

  detail: Piestro was a pizza-vending-machine hardware maker, not a software vendor, and it ceased operations in January 2025
    without shipping a production unit; the only publicly readable surface left is a stale Webflow marketing/crowdfunding
    site whose entire link graph is Overview/Team/Press/Careers/Invest, with no developer, docs or API page anywhere, and
    no first-party GitHub org, npm or PyPI package to fall back on.
